CD10 delineates a subset of human IL-4 producing follicular helper T cells involved in the survival of follicular lymphoma B cells.
In follicular lymphoma (FL), follicular helper T cells (TFH) have been depicted as one of the main components of the malignant B-cell niche and a promising therapeutic target. Although defined by their capacity to sustain FL B-cell growth together with specific gene expression and cytokine secretion profiles, FL-TFH constitute a heterogeneous cell population. However, specific markers reflectin...
متن کاملT follicular helper cells: a potential therapeutic target in follicular lymphoma
Follicular lymphoma (FL), the most common indolent B-cell non-Hodgkin lymphoma (B-NHL), is a germinal center (GC)-derived lymphoma. The mechanisms underlying B-cell differentiation/maturation in GCs could be also involved in their malignant transformation. Moreover, the non-malignant cell composition and architecture of the tumor microenvironment can influence FL development and outcome. Here, ...
متن کاملAnti-PD-1 antibodies for the treatment of B-cell lymphoma
Monoclonal antibodies specific for programmed cell death 1 (PDCD1, best known as PD-1) have been shown to mediate antineoplastic effects in follicular lymphoma patients. However, the relative proportion of intratumoral PD-1+ T-cell subsets, in particular follicular helper T cells (which exert pro-tumor functions) and effector T cells (which have anticancer activity), may impact clinical outcome...
متن کاملCross talk between follicular Th cells and tumor cells in human follicular lymphoma promotes immune evasion in the tumor microenvironment.
The microenvironment of human follicular lymphoma (FL), an incurable B cell non-Hodgkin's lymphoma, is thought to play a major role in its pathogenesis and course. Microenvironmental cells of likely importance include follicular Th cells (TFH) and regulatory T cells (Tregs), and understanding their interactions with FL tumor cells is necessary to develop novel therapeutic strategies. We found t...
متن کاملNeuropilin-1 Expression Characterizes T Follicular Helper (Tfh) Cells Activated during B Cell Differentiation in Human Secondary Lymphoid Organs
T follicular helper (Tfh) cells play an essential role in the development of antigen-specific B cell immunity. Tfh cells regulate the differentiation and survival of activated B cells outside and inside germinal centers (GC) of secondary lymphoid organs. They act through cognate contacts with antigen-presenting B cells, but there is no current marker to specifically identify those Tfh cells whi...
